The Dollar Lyrics - Dollar - Jamey Johnson

Daddy hugs his little man 

Says, son I've got to go 

And he pulls out of the drive and disappears 

As they walk back in the house 

The young boy asks his mama 

"here does daddy go when he leaves here 

Mama tells her little man, 

Your daddy's got a job 

And when he goes to work they pay him for his time 

Well the young boy gets to thinking 

And he heads up to his bedroom 

And comes running back with a quarter and four dimes

And says, mama, how much time will this buy me 

Is it enough to take me fishing or throw a football in the street 

If I'm a little short then how much more does daddy need 

To spend some time with me 

The young boy tells his mama 

Now I know daddy's busy 

'Cause most times when he gets home it's dark outside 

But tell him I've got me some pennies 

Saved up from the tooth fairy 

And I keep 'em in my piggy bank and I believe there's thirty-five 

And mama, how much time will that buy me 

Is it enough to take me camping in a tent down by the creek 

If I'm a little short then how much more does daddy need 

To spend some time with me 

Mama, how much time will this buy me 

Is it enough for just an afternoon a day or a whole week 

If I'm a little short then how much more does daddy need 

To spend some time with me 

Mama takes her little man 

Sets him on her lap 

And starts dialing up some numbers on the phone 

She says, daddy come home early 

You don't have to chase that dollar 

'Cause your little man has got one here at home
